Flesh and Fantasie moved to draftspace
editThanks for your contributions to Flesh and Fantasie. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and those sources need to be reliable and independent. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:34, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Kurt Cobain at MTV Unplugged.webp
editA tag has been placed on File:Kurt Cobain at MTV Unplugged.webp requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the non-free content guidelines, please add the appropriate non-free use tag and rationale.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Whpq (talk) 18:08, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Note - It is not from MTV as you stated in the non-free usage rationale. The Britannica source identifies the image as being from Pictorial Press/Alamy whish is a commercial image agency. Additionally, the image fails to satisfy WP:NFCC#1 as there is a free image of Cobain in the article in the infobox. -- Whpq (talk) 18:11, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Replaceable non-free use File:Nirvana 1993.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Nirvana 1993.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of non-free use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of non-free use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable non-free use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable non-free use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file's talk page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 18:21, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
It's already a GA article from 2008, and skimming over it, it doesn't look too bad. If you send it to peer review, and start work you could conceivably send it to FA in August, and then it may get FA status. I'd also suggest sending it to Guild of Copy-editors. It would make more sense to run the album on its 30th than to run Biggie Small's biographical page instead. Harizotoh9 (talk) 19:14, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Tupac and Biggie.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:Tupac and Biggie.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 03:08, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

editHello, Wcamp9. I noticed that your recent edit to East Coast–West Coast hip hop rivalry added a link to an image on an external website or on your computer, or to a file name that does not exist on Wikipedia's server. For technical and policy reasons it is not possible to use images from external sources on Wikipedia. Most images you find on the internet are copyrighted and cannot be used on Wikipedia, or their use is subject to certain restrictions. If the image meets Wikipedia's image use policy, consider uploading it to Wikipedia yourself or request that someone else upload it. See the image tutorial to learn about wiki syntax used for images. Thank you. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 03:30, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
